The clinical efficacy of Oxaliplatin (L-OHP) is potentially limited by dose-dependent neurotoxicity and high partitioning to erythrocytes . Long-circulating liposomes could improve the pharmacokinetic profile of L-OHP and thus enhance its therapeutic efficacy and reduce its toxicity. The purpose of this study was to prepare L-OHP long-circulating liposomes (L-OHP PEG lip) by reverse-phase evaporation method (REV) and investigate their pharmacokinetic behavior based on total platinum in rat plasma using atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). A simple and a sensitive AAS method was developed and validated to determine the total platinum originated from L-OHP liposomes in plasma. Furthermore, long-circulating liposomes were fully characterized and showed great stability when stored at 4°C for one month. The results showed that the total platinum in plasma of L-OHP long-circulating liposomes displayed a biexponential pharmacokinetic profile with five folds higher bioavailability and longer distribution half-life compared to L-OHP solution. Thus, long-circulating liposomes prolonged L-OHP circulation time and may present a potential candidate for its tumor delivery. Conclusively, the developed AAS method could serve as a reference to investigate the pharmacokinetic behavior of total platinum in biological matrices for other L-OHP delivery systems.

Objective: DSPE-mPEG2000 is a phospholipid and polyethylene glycol conjugate used in various biomedical applications, including drug delivery, gene transfection, and vaccine delivery. Due to the hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties of DSPE-mPEG2000, it can serve as a drug carrier, encapsulating drugs in liposomes to enhance stability and efficacy.
Method: In this study, long-circulating podophyllotoxin liposomes (Lc-PTOX-Lps) were prepared using DSPE-mPEG2000 as a modifying material and evaluated for their pharmacokinetics and anticancer activity.

Osteoporosis has increasingly become a major public health concern because of its associated heightened risk of bone fragility and fractures. In order to avoid the adverse risk of hormone therapy, scientists have considered isoquercitrin (IQ) as a natural phytoestrogen to potentially prevent osteoporosis. However, IQ has poor solubility and bioavailability which culminates in rapid elimination of phytoestrogen.

High mortality and disability have been principally linked with traumatic brain injury (TBI) with this condition being a principal issue in public health. Currently, there is no reliable pharmaceutical agent to salvage the damage caused by TBI. Baicalein (BCL), a traditional Chinese medicine active ingredient, has preliminarily shown repair activity on brain injury.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the most common primary bone sarcoma with high malignant degree and poor prognosis, for which there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutic approaches. Recent research has revealed that mifamurtide significantly improved the outcome of OS patients when combined with adjuvant chemotherapy drugs including cisplatin (DDP). The present study aimed to construct a drug delivery system co-loading DDP and mifamurtide.

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder characterised by insulin resistance, hyperglycaemia, and inflammation, with oxidative stress contributing to its progression. Curcumin (CUR), known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and insulin sensitising effects, has shown potential for the treatment of T2DM but is limited by low solubility and bioavailability. This study investigated long-circulating curcumin-loaded liposomes (CUR-LPs) to improve curcumin stability, solubility, and circulation and assessed their effect on insulin resistance in a murine model of T2DM.
